How did you create the flar of the s10 system? Did the s10 system
have a zfs root? If so, then you must create the flar using an
explicit -L option to specify either a cpio or pax archive. Otherwise
the flar will actually contain a zfs send stream of the root pool
and that is not suitable for installing a zone (since the zone root must
be a dataset, not a pool). I recently integrated the following bug fix
to help address this:
6903478 need better error msg for flar made on system with zfs root
Jerry
Also if the system has a separate /var and is zfs root based, you will
need to manually build the cpio archive, ie flar create -L cpio will not
work.
6889459 flarcreate using cpio of a system running SUNWCreq zfs root with
seperate /var fails.
I used the following
cd /
find . \( \( -fstype nfs -o -fstype autofs \) -prune \) -o -print| egrep
-v "^./proc|^./system|^./devices|^./dev|^./export/home|^./home|^./tmp"
|cpio -oc > /export/home/oryx.cpio
But that is only if you have zfs root and separate /var.
